Development tools for a better you
Hi, my name is Juliana Ochoa and I am very happy and excited to be joining the wonderful team of Orlando counselors and life coaches at Life Skills Resource Group. I look forward to meeting you! In the meantime, I will share a little about myself and why I became a therapist. I have been […]
Finding peace within yourself, or feeling a sense of zen is something that many of us struggle to define- let alone master. I always thought being at peace with myself meant perfecting all of my flaws, achieving all of my goals, and mastering every niche I wished was mine. I learned through experience that this […]
We all have habits; both good, and bad. It’s part of who we are. And, they can help us get through our day-to-day lives so mindlessly; because we are performing habitual acts without even noticing. For instance, when our minds go on “autopilot” on our drive to work, school, the shopping center, etc. When you […]
It is very easy to get distracted from the “here and now“. What with deadlines, future assignments, goals we want to hit, and plans we can’t wait to make, is there really any time TO be present?

Depending on the severity of this “let-down”, the variety of emotions that we may encounter can be plentiful. There’s no […]
This week’s blog post will be about something a little different from our most recent one’s.
